'''Egg Lay''' is a move that [[Yoshi]] is able to perform in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]], and ''[[Super Smash Bros Brawl]]''. The player has to simply press the B Button to activate the move. Yoshi will go on to stick his tongue forward, and will eat anyone he hits. He will then lay an egg containing the player he just ate, causing him to become immobile. Yoshi can then proceed to attack the trapped player, while he can't retaliate. The player will hatch out of the egg eventually. It can also be used to run away from the opponent, in order to regroup. It is unknown if Yoshi will use his move again in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.

Egg Lay is Yoshi's standard special move in the Super Smash Bros. series. It involves him sticking his tongue out, and if he grabs a fighter, Yoshi swallows them and lays an egg with them trapped inside; fighters with higher damage outputs are trapped in eggs for longer, but can escape sooner by pressing buttons.

In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, Egg Lay has two custom variants:

  • Lick cannot grab fighters, but instead, Yoshi jumps forward and uses his tongue to attack nearby opponents.
  • Egg Launch enables Yoshi to launch opponents farther than normal after turning them into eggs. However, the trapped opponents can break free from the eggs more easily. This attack can be used to send opponents off-stage, which can potentially give Yoshi KOs if his target's horizontal recovery is poor.
